[TR] Mr. Macartney said "y'all" from way over in England

In the Virginia/North Carolina dialect in which I was once schooled, correct 
grammar would be "all y'all."  Not sure that Texans make that distinction. 
Natives of my current city of residence don't understand either case.

John said, "There's an urgent need for as many Triumph posts as y'all can
muster in the coming weeks for this corner of sleepy England."  That makes 
my
heart proud in Texas!  Good luck over there John, hubbub of almost any 
variety
will wither on the vine if we can just tolerate the brief frenzies.  Of
course, here in the states we generate at least one hubbub per day if not
hour, thinly veiled as news, but strangely, they have become some sort of a
perverted entertainment source it would seem.  On a car note, my 1958 TR3A 
is
still waiting patiently for me to go in there and get started on it.  Sigh.
Cars are far more patient than humans.
